East Midlands Blogger Meet Up - Leicester

So on the 13th August 2016 I attend the #EastMidsMeetup
which was organised by Emmie - Carpe Diem Emmie, Kirstie – Behind The Scent after so many months of planning
they should know that they have done a fantastic job they should be so proud of themselves and
everyone else that help them bring the day together. This event if my forth one
I have been to ever since I have been blogging and this one was my favourite by
far!

Before going to the event venue I met up with a couple of
blogger girls for a friendly get to together and met some more amazing bloggers
who were new this event and made some more amazing friends we all met at a
local café called Bru I had never been to Bru before so I was struggling to
find where it was at first but once I found it and entered it was such a great
place and I said to myself (How have I never been here before?) I ordered a
stunning caramel hot chocolate and it was to die for! The staff members were
for friendly and I ended up having a good chat with a young lady about the event. Once the rest of the girls joined me I got to know them
all so much better and we had a fabulous time having tea and coffees and of course CAKE!

The main event was held at Manhattan.34 I have never heard
of this place before so I was really looking forward to seeing it. Once we
arrived at the venue it was beautiful it was a perfect place for an amazing event,
We was greeted by Lianne - The Brunette Says who handed out random facts about the bloggers that
had attended, we had to go a find the correct person to fact that
we was given, unfortunately I didn’t find mine but one of girls who had mine
found me! It was so much fun getting to know her!

As the event went on I had a look around at all the amazing
brands that come to event we had Danique Hairdressing who given me some great
tips on style my hair and information about their salon I also spoke to AngelEyes and she also given me some tips on how to look after my eyelashes and also
how Angel Eyes work and I found it pretty amazing!

I also brought myself some raffle tickets and I love the fact
that the money went to Rainbows & Bowel Cancer UK and they made a great amount
of money for two amazing companies! I did end up winning a little goodie bag
with perfume, lipstick and eye shadows so I was so happy with that and the
products are just amazing.

We also had some amazing talks thought out the event the
first one was from Gabby from Cool As Publicly who guided us about working with
PR’s she helped me a lot with how to join PR’s and also helped me getting a
media kit sorted. She given out some amazing advice thought out her talk I will
admit I’m not an expert on approaching PR’s but after hearing Gabby speak it
made want to get more involved with PR’s and the tips she given me has actually
worked! So I would like to thank Gabby for that.

We also had a speech from Blogosphere magazine I never knew
this magazine even existed! (Yes I know right!) But now I know and I brought my
self to copies on the day and even subscribed to them. This magazine is written
by bloggers for bloggers and I can’t put it down! The two ladies were so lovely
and spoken to me more about the magazine and told me so much about it and how
so many people are using it as a guide to help them with there own blogs and they have inspired
me to do so much more with my own while reading there magazine I’ve been reading
some amazing bloggers as well which are now saved to my favourites.
